t/JPEG_p_podchecker.t fails because of non-ASCII characters in POD

I get the following error when I run the tests: t/JPEG_p_podchecker.t ...... # Checking documentation syntax with Pod::Checker *** ERROR: Non-ASCII character seen before =encoding in 'M?ller'. Assuming ISO8859-1 at line 1544 in file lib/Image/MetaData/JPEG.pod t/JPEG_p_podchecker.t ...... 1/4 # Failed test 'Checking lib/Image/MetaData/JPEG.pod' # at t/JPEG_p_podchecker.t line 26. # got: '1' # expected: '0' *** ERROR: Non-ASCII character seen before =encoding in 'Comit?'. Assuming ISO8859-1 at line 633 in file lib/Image/MetaData/JPEG/Structures.pod # Failed test 'Checking lib/Image/MetaData/JPEG/Structures.pod' # at t/JPEG_p_podchecker.t line 26. # got: '1' # expected: '0' # Looks like you failed 2 tests of 4. t/JPEG_p_podchecker.t ...... Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200) Failed 2/4 subtests Applying the attached patches silences the errors. The POD still renders strangely, though. I have marked this "Unimportant" because the failure is clearly not related to module functionality, and the install can always be forced. I am running: Perl 5.18.1 Pod::Checker 1.70 OS Darwin 12.5.0 (Mac OS 10.8.5)

This bug is preventing the module from installing normally via CPAN. I'd be happy to build a this-fix-only release for you if it would help get the bugfix onto CPAN. Please let me know! -- rjbs

Hi, since I am currently too busy to look after this package I would really welcome someone volunteering to fix the annoying podchecker message. In fact, it would be a good idea to find someone with more time than me as a new maintainer and developer. The errors are related to non-ASCII characters in .pod files. Line 1544 in lib/Image/MetaData/JPEG.pod =item "libexif" by Lutz Müller and line 633 in lib/Image/MetaData/JPEG/Structures.pod Comité International des Télécommunications de Presse> the "offending" characters are of course the u-umlaut and the accented e's. Probably one just needs to change the encoding of the file, but I have no time to look into it right now. Please go ahead with the bug-fix release, and thank you. Best regards, Stefano Bettelli

Hi again, if you proceed with a bug-fix release, could you also implement the change proposed in ticket 78654 (a one-character fix indeed). Thanks
